Ashe Student Health & Wellness Center

Health is key. The Ashe Center is committed to helping students “shine, inside and out.” From eating well and staying active to managing stress, it’s no wonder that UCLA was voted #1 for Student Health Services!

Cost to Students

All currently enrolled UCLA students are eligible to use The Ashe Center. Students with UC Student Health Insurance Plan (UC SHIP) can utilize the majority of Ashe’s services free of cost. Students with BruinCare can utilize the core services of the Ashe Center free of charge. Students who do not have UC SHIP are still able to utilize Ashe Center services, for a small fee. For a complete list of fees, please visit the Ashe Center Fees and Eligibility. For more information on student health insurance and UC SHIP

24/7 NurseLine

The UCLA Ashe Center recognizes that health concerns don’t follow a campus schedule. Sometimes your student will need answers to their health concerns right away – and that can be in the middle of the night or while they’re off campus. That’s why the Anthem Blue Cross 24/7 NurseLine (877-351-3457) is there for your student 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Your student can call the NuseLine any time to speak with a registered nurse who is trained to help them make more informed decisions about their health.

Medical Emergency/Crisis

In the case of a life threatening emergency, your student should go to the nearest hospital emergency department: Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center Emergency Room (310-825-2111).

If an ambulance is needed: Call 911 or campus UCPD at (310) 825-1491

Ashe Center Services

Nurse Consult
Rather than wait for an appointment with an Ashe clinician, all students now have the option of speaking with a registered consult nurse. A registered consult nurse is specially trained to assess problems over the phone. Our registered nurse will assess your symptoms, ask about the history of your illness or injury and make an appropriate plan of care. Students can contact the nurse via the secure patient portal or by phone.

Optometry
Our expanded services and location offer comprehensive eye exams, as well as a selection of 700+ eyeglasses, sunglasses, and contact lenses. Please note: U See LA Optometry, an extension of The Ashe Center, is available on the first floor of Ackerman Union near the UCLA convenience store.

Radiology & Lab Services
Our laboratory and radiology services are located on the first floor of The Ashe Center and provide students with a convenient location to receive a number of tests in-house.

Acupuncture & MassageThe Ashe Mind Body Clinic provides acupuncture and massage as a gentle approach to complementary medical therapy for the body, mind, and spirit. Acupuncture is an ancient form of healing which has been proven to be beneficial in modern times. In addition, our certified massage therapists offer a relaxing and rejuvenating experience that can play a key role in the therapeutic healing process.

Specialty Clinics
The Ashe Center offers a variety of in-house specialty clinics. If needed, a Primary Care Provider (PCP) will refer your student to a specialist for specific health concerns. Some of the specialists available to students who visit The Ashe Center include clinicians specially trained in the treatment of diabetes, urology, allergy and cardiology.
